    A paradox is when you are combining two opposite things that wouldn't normally be found together.

    Having this in mind, the correct answer is 3. the sweetest honey / Is loathsome in his own deliciousness.

    So, the honey is sweet, which means something good and pleasant, however, the author says that it is loathsome at the same time, which means something bad.
